  • Taking Care Of My Sis’ Kids

    I’ve been surrogate parent to my 2 nieces and nephew for the past 2 weeks since their mom has gone abroad. Lemme write down whats been going on: The 19 year old is running for a Student Council position at UP and I don’t agree with her wild schedule that makes her go home near…

  • .asia Is Useless

    First, Asia is varied and each individual country that makes it up is distinct, from culture to language to currency, religion, beliefs, political systems, socio-economic structures, economies, the way we look, eat, dress, etc, Each country pretty much has little to do with one another.

Instead, everytime a dramatic sequence or something of note occurs, we are treated to the cheesiest, cliche-est, overly sentimental, Kevin Costner-ish* , background music ever. It’s not the worst though. That award, has to go to Jerry Bruckheimer’s…

  • Upgrading to WordPress 2.3.3 (waaay updated)

    New WordPress Out Again!! And for the life of me, even if I’ve been webmastering in the wonderful of WordPress for years now, I still don’t enjoy the process of upgrading, unassuaged* by the fact I have to do it 3 times every time (I have 3 blogs, not including this). At any rate, further…
